Dighton-Rehoboth Hires New Business Administrator

The Dighton-Rehoboth Regional School District has hired Leo Brehm to serve as the District Business Administrator.  “As soon as he joined us as Director of IT in January, he was immediately thrust into our budget frenzy,” Superintendent Bill Runey said Friday. “His many years of both public school and corporate educational technology experience paid immediate dividends as he was able to assess our current situation and find us significant savings. These savings were crucial in making our budget more efficient while still keeping us running effectively.”

“It is this type of creative problem-solving and intellect that made me confident in my recommendation to the School Committee that he should be our next District Business Administrator,” Runey added. “I am confident that Leo will grow into this role. I am proud that he wants to grow with our team in D-R.”

"I'm thrilled to join the Dighton Rehoboth School District as the new District Business Administrator,” Brehm said. “Having served as the District IT Director, I am excited to expand my professional growth in this new role. I deeply appreciate the opportunity to contribute to a dynamic educational community and support the district's mission of fostering academic excellence and growth. I look forward to collaborating with the dedicated staff, students, and community members to achieve our shared goals and ensure a bright future for our schools.”

The position had been vacant since the resignation of Robert Baxter in July 2023.
